Hey, you understand the tradeoff. Ript gunz + belly... or twiggy arms + ript abz? It's your choice.
Seriously, I think it's great that you're able to get in the time to work out.

Thanks, Bill. I made a decision a few years back that exercise would always be an important part of my life, so I've got to make time for it. I get into work early, so I can leave early, so I can go to the gym early, so I can get home to my family early.
It's all about priorities... which means that my TV/internet/video game time has suffered. That's probably not a bad thing (aside from my less frequent postings here).
By the way, you can see my 3,000th post right here.

Good workout.
Are you doing the lunges and step ups with DBs? That'll really challenge the grip.
